Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief on land adjacent to the A40 trunk road, Gloucestershire during the installation of a new water pipeline. The majority of the installation was undertaken by direct drilling, with short sections inserted in open-cut trenches. No archaeological features were encountered in any of the 43 trenches across the Scheme with only a small collection of unstratified artefacts recovered from the topsoil. Of these, perhaps the most significant is a fragment of an early 15th-century decorated floor tile, which would have formed part of a multiple tile design. The remaining artefacts represent a faily common spread of post-medieval items often brought from other locations in topsoil, washed in through alluvial action or as part of post-medieval/19th century manuring processes. The simple stratigraphy observed along the Scheme serves to reinforce the conclusions of the desk-based assessment and previous archaeological investigations which indicated the area around the Scheme has remained agricultural land since the 18th century, with no evidence for earlier occupation recorded along the route.
